Chuck Walla: Greetings from Geocaching.com!

Since you have not responded to my reviewer log about your cache, the cache has been archived.

Some time ago, I posted a note to your cache page requesting a response from you to post what you were planning to do with the cache on the page and to send me a note. I have no record of a response, and no response tells me that you are not planning on replacing or repairing this cache. If I am wrong with that assumption, please let me know promptly. I can always unarchive the cache for you if needed.

Sincerely,

Geocache Description:

Cache is located at River Ridge Park (Franklin County/Sebastian County), US Army Corps of Engineers.

This cache is named for the first county seat of Crawford County. The original historical sign is no longer standing due to vandalism. The Corps of Engineers has the plaque, which I was allowed to take a picture of, the inscription reads as follows:

Crawford County
First County Seat

The first county seat of Crawford County, known as "Old Crawford Court House" was established in 1820, near the house of John Jay, on the South side of the Arkansas River. Crawford County was named in honor of William H. Crawford, U.S. Secretary of War in 1815.

The cache container is covered in camo tape and medium in size. Have fun and be safe. Thanks & Happy Caching.

NOTE: You might want to do your homework, like check routes and location on topo maps before you head out the door to find this cache. Don't want you to get lost!!!!
